Authors:
Tumors depend on a vascular supply for their growth
Tumor vasculature is clearly different to normal vasculature
The phenotypic range of tumor endothelium is influenced by the specific tumor microenvironment and by epigenetic effects
Two approaches are available for targeting tumor vasculature: a) prevent new blood vessel formation; b) disrupt tumor vasculature
